No it wouldn't, there's no legimate business purpose for the holding company you describe.

Btw GAAP accounting is not the same as tax accounting. Each is a different basis of accounting.

central holding company for multiple vineyards. we give you present value of future wine

ie a bottle of 1 day old is $5.67, a bottle of the same label that's 5 years old goes for $10.

If I buy at $5.67 and sell at $10, 5 years later I get a 12% annual return.

Is that return operating income or capital gains of goods sold?
